Practical Civil Service.

WASHINGTON, Aug. S.-President
Cleyeland has not read Mr.. Curtis's
speech at the meeting of the civil SER
vice reform association, but secretary
Fairchild has. Mr.. Fairchild says he
does not believe in the sentiment" of
civil service advocated by Curtis and
his followers, bat he favors a
practical civilsservice system, espec-
tally in the minor Offices. He believes
III the doctrine that to the victor be-
long the spoils as far as relates to the
Offices which shape and control the ad-
ministration. These offices which are
considered an element of strength
to the party i'll power, should, he
thinks, be in the hands of the victors
at the polls. There are many of the
minor offices which have no voice nor
inlluencein forming the policy of the ad-
ministration which are positive weak
ness to the party in control. The re-
publicans admitted that, and during
the short period the democratic party
has been in power, that fact has be-
come apparent. Fairchild admits that
it has been the custom for years back
to regard all the federal offices as
spoils Of the battle. The people have
been educated in that view, and it is
but natural that they should expect to
be recognized and rewarded upon the
success of their party at the polls.
